I agree with Lloyd - I mean it's a whole forkin' SIX DOLLARS!!!! Holy crap - and this Internet thing is free - isn't it??? I mean - it doesn't forkin' cost a forkin' penny... That's why you see all those SPONSOR banners on this site.

How dare you challange ANYONE TRYING TO COVER gawd-damned costs. I mean, ole' Ralphie's list is typed, copied, labeled, mailed - and manually put on the Internet... For crying out loud - I could call Simpson and spend an hour or two going through THEIR inventory - and dammit - would only cost me about $10 bucks in phone calls - each month.....

Jeez - I hope I never want to cover MY COSTS in running this site, huh? At $0.10 a post per month - I might ALMOST break even JUST for the software. Stuff the server and the connection. But, that's NOT the American way - as the forkin' Internet is "FREE"...

$6 for Ralph's list.. Yea - last time I chatted with him, he was on his forkin' yacht in Tahiti just off those the profits.

Gim'me a break.
